I've started Beth Moore's book "So Long insecurity". It's wonderful so far! I didn't think i was an insecure person but reading this book i'm realizing some of my tendencies are rooted in insecurity! I'm reading this book before and during our trip to Honduras in hopes that when i come back, i can lead a group of women through this book as a study. I'm really looking forward to it. I've always gotten a lot out of it, so i look forward to doing it with other people.

"You and I are going to have to come to a place where we stop handing people the kind of power only God should wield over us. Change will not come easy. Old habits die hard. But we can make the radical decision to rewire our security system."

Maybe i'm alone.
Maybe i'm the only one who looks to others for approval. Mainly my husband.

I found myself being hurt by relationships that should not be hurtful.
I found i was getting hurt by people who didn't even deserve the power to hurt me. I gave them that power and i needed to get it back. They have no value in my  life if they are hurtful. Why was i letting them in?

Like the quote above says, only God should wield that power over us. No one else.

So i'm happy to say, this book is amazing and i'm loving the journey she is taking me on. I'm underlining like crazy and enjoying her style of writing very much.
